Whilst men do not have a month long hormone cycle like us girls but they do go through an entire hormone cycle in a 24 hour period.
The main hormone in men is testosterone, they have 10 times more than women, so their hormone cycle is usually all about how their testosterone levels. They do produce oestrogen and progesterone like us girls but in very small amounts.
So, what’s a man’s 24-hour hormone cycle look like? His testosterone is highest in the morning when he wakes up and gets lower and lower as the day goes on.
Here’s some of what you can expect throughout his day:
Morning: Testosterone level is at its highest
His hormone horoscope: He’s at his most energetic, talkative, aggressive, focused, competitive, independent, impulsive and confident. He also may be quick to anger and is more likely to say “no” to a favor or request for something you want, like a new kitchen. His virility is at its peak. So is his ability to read maps and do spatial thinking.
This is the best time to… Have him put together a piece of furniture or fix a shelf, have him compete in a contest, give him a project to do solo, figure out the best driving route and initiate passionate sex.
Afternoon: Testosterone level drops and is in the middle of its cycle
His hormone horoscope: He’s a tad mellower than his morning self, but isn’t going on empty just yet. As a result, he’s still upbeat, driven and focused, but not as quick to anger. He’s more open to working with others rather than going solo. You’ll also catch him smiling more now than in the morning.
This is the best time to… Invite him to work as part of a team, have him talk to or pitch clients or customers, brainstorm ideas with him.
Evening: Testosterone level is at its lowest
His hormone horoscope: He’s more passive, agreeable and low-key. He may feel tired or fuzzy. His libido hits its lowest point. For some men, this low point is still quite high, making him interested and capable of passionate sex; in other men, they may feel too tired to have sex or have difficulty maintaining an erection.
This is the best time to… Ask him for a favour, get him to agree to you buying a new car or pose any other question that you need a “yes” to. He’ll be more likely to give in now than in the earlier hours of the day.
This are a few exceptions to the above: A man’s testosterone is affected by things he does. For instance, his testosterone level rises when he drinks alcohol or caffeine, sees an action movie, plays video games or competes in or anticipates a sports game or game of chess. His testosterone also rises when he simply watches his favorite team compete. While his testosterone stays high if his team wins, it plunges if his team loses, making him feel blue, cranky or lethargic.
